Samsun Carsamba Airport in Turkey…

The airport at Samsun, overlooking the Black Sea, was desolate. A smashed and broken runway told them that it was an airport, but there was no other element that indicated one.

In that situation, a plane appeared over the airport. It seemed that the time for the airport to act like one had come after a long time.

But the appearance of the plane was not good. It was a fall, not a landing. It looked like it had been hit several times by huge stones, and the airplane, without a single thing except for its wings, could no longer be called an airplane.

An Orc that had flown from the ground pointed to it.

The Orc, who appeared with an unheard scream, tangled up with a propeller on the wing of the plane. The result was naturally terrible.

The Orc’s body was cut off by the propeller, and the motor that had been driving the propeller was overloaded in the process. The plane, which had lost its wings, barely managed to stay aloft, and it fell heavily towards the ground.

It was all over in a flash. The plane crashed on the runway at Carsamba Airport, and the debris scattered all over the place with a crunch of impact.

The bombs in the plane burst in succession, and the remains of the debris were blown away.

But it was not the end, merely the beginning.

On the runway at Carsamba Airport, the tide of Orcs came in, shouting fiercely. The Orcs were not afraid of the fires everywhere, the sharp wreckage of the plane, or the bombs that might explode at any moment. They rushed to the plane and surrounded it at once.

One of the Orcs strode toward the cockpit of the plane, looking past the blazing flames. But when it realized that there was nothing in the cockpit, a question formed in the Orc’s mind. Then, another Orc screamed, looking at a place that had nothing to do with the plane. All the Orcs looked over.

Huge Horse Soldiers made of soil faced the Orcs. Unlike a horde of Orcs, who were free and unruly, the Horse Soldiers appeared to take the same steps at the same time, keeping the line together.

Thump! Thump! Thump! The Horse Soldiers began to walk faster.

Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump! The Horse Soldiers began to race. As they did, the spearmen at the front line of the Soldiers leveled their spears straight ahead.

The Orcs did not back down or panic before the appearance of the Horse Soldiers. Rather, they began to run toward the Soldiers that were coming at them. Very quickly, the two groups clashed like clapping hands together.

Bang! Bang! A bloody and soiled battleground unfolded over the runway at Carsamba Airport.

Kohohoh! In the meantime, a huge Dragon made of golden smoke began to fall down on the runway.

The Orc-hunting began.

The war between mankind and monsters demanded a completely different mindset from the wars that had come before.

A typical figure was numbers. Numbers were the most important factor in war. But numbers in the monster and human war were no longer important. No matter how many numbers there were, the numbers were meaningless in front of an overwhelming presence.

The same was true of the monsters. To Kim Tae-hoon, the numbers of the Orc Horde were also meaningless. The fact that the airport was now crowded with more than 100,000 Orc Horde proved it.

Thump! The beginning move was a thousand of the Horse Soldiers of the Qin Shi Huang Sword, showing that each had power equal to a hundred warriors against the crowded Orc Horde.

It was no strange thing. Originally, the Horse Soldiers were able to cope with an orange-grade Orc. Now, the Horse Soldiers were able to gain the power of the Giant using the Mana of Kim Tae-hoon. It was a nightmare for the Orcs.

The great spears and swords wielded by the Soldiers of the Qin Shi Huang tore the Orcs, crushed them, and the giant Horses trampled on them and filled the airport with the screams of Orcs.

One soldier, in particular, played the most outstanding role.

It was made of clay, but it looked completely different from the Horse Soldiers of the Qin Shi Huang: the Horse Figure Type Earthenware, Master Statue. The Master Statue and the Servant Statue, who became much more massive due to the Mana of the Giant, carried out a massacre across the Orcs. They took an outstanding active part in the combat.

But even that great performance was not comparable to the Dragon who was going through the battlefield.

A giant Dragon, a hundred meters long, made of golden smoke, was making its way over the Orc Horde, wandering around the airport.

The Dragon of the Gilt-bronze Incense Burner of Baekje, which supported the great work of art, was spreading its prestige in the distant country of Turkey. Of course, the Dragon was not alone. Various animals of the golden smoke filling the Gilt-bronze Incense Burner of Baekje were also rampaging throughout the battlefield.

Even though Kim Tae-hoon had not yet participated in the battle properly, the 100,000 Orc Horde was not able to achieve the right results. There was only one thing that could change this situation.

The Orc Khan with the purple eyes walked toward the battlefield. Its eyes were angry. The same was true of its actions.

The Orc Khan stood there, hit things that interfered with it without mercy, or crushed them with its feet.

The Orcs with yellow or green eyes screamed under the anger of Orc Khan.

With a cry that humans could grasp the meaning of, the Orcs began to move away from the Orc Khan. Its surroundings turned into an empty field.

The Master Statue of the Horse Figure Type Earthenware ran in without hesitation. A war horse made of clay breathed hard, and a warrior of clay mounted on the horse stared at the Orc Khan with a sword in his hands.

The warrior of clay had no ulterior motive for fighting the Orc Khan on its master’s behalf, and Orc Khan did not condone such a warrior’s challenge.

The Orc Khan reached the warrior with just one leap from place to place, without any help. Then, with a single punch, the warrior’s body was shattered.

The startled horse spewed out a harsh breath. The breath became its last.

Orc Khan lifted the horse with one hand and smashed it down the ground.

The Horse Figure Type Earthenware, which had performed wonderfully against the Orcs, became garbage in an instant.

Of course, there was still a chance.

Jingle! The Servant Statue of Horse Figure Type Earthenware rang the bell for his master, so his owner could again compete against the Orc Khan. However, the attempt was shattered by something suddenly flung out.

The Master Statue that the Orc Khan threw out shattered the body of the Servant Statue. It was overwhelming.

The Orc Khan, who showed such a commanding presence, began to swell its chest greatly.

The Orcs looking on trembled and covered their ears with both hands, even though they were fighting. Soon after, Orc Khan vomited what had been filling its chest into the world.

Keuaaaaaa!

A great fear, far beyond dragon fear, devoured the Carsamba airport in one gulp. It was thunder, a devastating attack.

The attack caused the eardrums of Orcs to burst, and some of them fell to the ground, vomiting blood as they were.

The solid bodies of the Horse Soldiers of the Qin Shi Huang cracked like the land in severe drought. The worst was the golden smokes of the Gilt-bronze Incense Burner of Baekje. They disappeared without even screaming.

The fierce battle had become a futile struggle. It was a wretched sight that went beyond appalling.

Only two in the scene could keep their previous intentions in a high tide. One was Orc Khan, calmed this battlefield with only one roar, and the other was Kim Tae-hoon, who had created this battlefield.

“Hoo!” Kim Tae-hoon, who had appeared with his back to the Black Sea at the end of the runway, informed the Orc Khan of his appearance with a long sigh.

Kim Tae-hoon was already preparing for the fighting. Draconian Mode was activated, with the Dragon Light Sword in his right hand, and a new Aegis shield in his left hand. His appearance seemed ready but weak.

It seemed that he had spent all his strength holding back the fear of Orc Khan.

That was the difference in power between Kim Tae-hoon and Orc Khan. He was seemingly out of power against it.

The Orc Khan could not help but notice. It immediately noticed that Kim Tae-hoon, despite withstanding its fear, could not threaten it. Of course, the Orc Khan had no such hesitation.

The Orc Khan ran toward Kim Tae-hoon. The distance between them was about a kilometer, but it was only a short distance of a hundred meters for the Orc Khan.

Eight seconds were all the time Kim Tae-hoon had against the Orc Khan running at him. It was enough time to breathe once and end. It was enough time to blink a few times.

“It is entrapped.”

It was enough. It was the time it took to invoke the trap Kim Tae-hoon had already set.

“Gleipnir!” With his cry, golden chains began to rise under the ground.

“The Orc Khan is never tired, so it never stops, and it has enough vitality and resilience to survive a nuclear explosion.”

It was the information that Kim Tae-hoon, who had finished the hunt, handed to Jang Sung-hoon, who would kill himself in front of him.

“You will never kill it just by cutting it.” The Orc Khan was a paragon of the impossible.

“Even I can fight it for a few minutes at best.”

The Orc Khan, with the strength close to infinite, could fight without rest, and its vitality and resilience overwhelmed even a dragon. It seemed to be a god of war.

In a fight to see blood, it was the incarnation of battle that could win against any monster. In other words, the way to beat it was to avoid close-quarters. In some ways, it was a contradiction. But in that contradiction, they found the right answer.

“That’s why the Six Snakes prepared Gleipnir.”

The Six Snakes found a way to kill the Orc Khan, despite it seeming impossible to anyone.

“We will grab Orc Khan with Gleipnir and use a warship to drown it in the Black Sea.”

They were going to bury it at sea. At this moment, Kim Tae-hoon used the method on behalf of the Six Snakes. As the Orc Khan charged at Kim Tae-hoon, gold chains began to rise from under the ground, wrapping around the Orc Khan in a flash.

The Orc Khan groaned and exerted strength all over its body, but the chains began to melt into its skin, rather than breaking. It was enough time for the snare of Gleipnir, which had held even a god, to hold the Orc Khan. As soon as Gleipnir caught the Orc Khan, its real power was revealed.

The gold chains that had been concealed under the sea like a submarine optical cable began to reveal themselves. At the end of the exposed gold chains was a great warship. It was a Moscow-class battleship, second largest after the aircraft carrier among Russian warships.

The battleship, of course, began its voyage toward the center of the Black Sea when the bait was caught.

Fighting hard, the Orc Khan worked to defy the power of the chain dragging it towards the Black Sea. The tug-of-war between the warship and the Orc Khan began. It was ridiculous, actually.

The Moscow-class warship had more than 100,000 horsepower.

But a four-meter-high monster, no matter how much muscle it had, was impossibly tugging at the giant battleship. Common sense was unacceptable. The Orc Khan had never recognized common sense.

It screamed as it realized the uncommon sense as reality again. It began to endure the power of the battleship dragging it towards the sea with its screams. It was something they could not believe.

Of course, the power competition could not last long. As time went by, the battleship began to speed up, and if the battleship was at full power, not even the Orc Khan could sustain its efforts. Furthermore, the land on which Orc Khan was standing was giving way as it fought this ridiculous competition of power.

The body of the Orc Khan held out, but the ground began to crumble under it. The Orc Khan’s body gradually moved toward the Black Sea, and it did not seem that Orc Khan had much time left standing.

But that was enough time. Orc Khan had no intention of just fighting with brute force ignorantly.

It began to rip off the golden line, the Gleipnir, which held it. It tore the Gleipnir away, and its flesh came with it, but it did not care. It would rip out all its hide if it needed. It knew by intuition that if it was dragged into the sea like this, it would die in the deep sea no matter how much power it had.

It feared death that it had never feared before. The struggle seemed to work.

Chwaak! Although Orc Khan’s body was gradually dragged into the Black Sea, the method of tearing out the Gleipnir merged in its skin along with the skin began to work. It was really going to rip the skin off its body and remove Gleipnir with it.

If a sword had not been drilled deeply into its back, its attempt would have worked.

Surprised, the Orc Khan turned its head and looked behind it. In its eyes, Kim Tae-hoon, who had set himself as bait, had come in.

Toot!

And it saw a Land Rover Range Rover racing toward Kim Tae-hoon.

Moscow…

The Red Square had been beautiful, but now it had become a place of ruins, and heavy equipment to restore the ruins. Major General Vladimir’s complexion was whiter and colder than the accumulated snow as he looked at the scene.

‘It was human beings who had finally destroyed the castle that had endured the monsters’ invasion.’

What was firm in the face of the monster’s emergence, its elusive disaster, was crushed by human hands. Major General Vladimir knew better than anyone what it meant.

‘Even if we win the war against the monsters, that’s all. After that, there will be a war between the Awakeners.’

The war would not be over unless humans survived. Vladimir sighed a long breath. Through that sigh, a man approached.

“Major General, the collapse is worse than we thought.”

At the report of his man, Vladimir’s eyebrows wriggled.

“How much?”

“They didn’t just blow up a single bomb. They set up a large amount of explosives inside the building, and they set them up in locations that could accelerate the collapse.”

“… did they do it without being noticed?”

“It’s not something they could do in a short time. I’m sure they worked at it for a minimum of more than a fortnight.

Vladimir felt dizzy at the word.

‘Mao Spencer never intended to negotiate with our country. He just needed time to build a bomb.’

But Vladimir remained unmoved by the dizziness.

“So how long will it take to excavate the underground bunker?”

“As you know, the underground bunker is located at the bottom. It’s not just digging in, but we have to work carefully that the surroundings don’t collapse. Therefore, at least twenty days are required.”

“Twenty days…”

Major General Vladimir turned his head south while talking. In his mind, the face of Kim Tae-hoon came in.

‘He must have started now. Is, after all, the fate of man in his hands?’

By now, his battle with the Orc Khan was both a subject of fear and a subject of faith for Vladimir. It was also the last hope of mankind. The only presence that could face the overwhelming disaster and could rush toward it was now him. That was why Russia was now using all its might to clear the ruins of the Kremlin palace that had collapsed.

‘First of all, as he said, it’s best to secure Bogatyr’s Great Sword. Under the debris, there is a weapon to destroy the deadly monster that dominates Siberia, and Kim Tae-hoon will be happy to use that weapon to restore Russia’s vast lands. There’s still time to spare.’

The good thing was that they still had plenty of time. The bitter cold of Siberia was still raging, and now that it was, catching zombies was the last chance to prepare for a nightmare, unless something special happened.

“Ma, Major General! We’re in trouble.”

“What’s the matter?”

“An earthquake was detected in the eastern part of the country.”

There was no reason for trouble until the winter was over, unless strange things beyond common sense happened.

“… it looks like a nuclear bomb went off.”
